Topic: MUN-1X Munchkin Design Challenge (Read 937 times)

Blacknova · « **on:** December 10, 2013, 02:38:05 AM »

For something a little bit different coming into the silly season, I would like to run a design challenge to see who can come up with the ultimate Munchkin BattleMech.

Once all efforts are in, I'll run a vote to see who the winner is based on the groups thoughts.

Parameters:
1. Max of 100 tons (it may be that not everyone has access to the super-heavy rules);
2. Mixed and experimental tech allowed; and
3. If in doubt, max it out.

Have fun, this should be interesting.

From here on in it shall be known as the SPM- 1X SpamBot.

What an opening volley it has.

It would explode before the last rockets left their tubes if it were to launch all at once. The TLs do generate heat.

Nice. The more of these the better.

Perhaps, once a few more designs come in, someone who plays on the tabletop could take a unit of one of each and face off against a Clan All Star OmniMech units of the same size and see who wins?
